Re: This is not practical! said by qworster:Look at the B and G wireless bands for example. There are MILLIONS of devices that share this small patch of spectrum successfully. Because they are all very low power and have a useful range measured in feet, not miles. And they are not sharing the band with some other established, distant service either.
I have no problem with Part 15 devices (very limited power, may not interfere) using the TV bands, but when you start trying to make broadband links over several miles or more there's going to be trouble. There aren't enough channels for everyone in a large area, for just the first thing. WiFi does OK with its few channels because of its limited range. -- The public is a poor business manager. |
